Vid of Hatton and Pacquiao in training

[-MAKAVELLI-]

LOL... or there will be reports of mass suicide from Pac nuthuggers when he gets KTFO in the 6th...

after this massacre, i expect at least 10 '****m Richardson Should Have Trained Ricky' threads

[gingeralbino]

it wont be a great fight....by the 5th round, there will already be 'Hatton Was Shot' threads floating on NSB

It should be a cracker of a fight, a real tear up. I cant see this one being over by the 5th, no way. It'll be rough, bloody and I think reasonably close.
I never pick who I think I will win until a day or two before the fight. At this stage my heart says Hatton but my head says Pac. Both guys are capable of KO each other, and I cannot wait for this!
May the best man win.

respect to ricky...he's a solid fighter but this is a train wreck waiting to happen IMO


it will be competitive in the early rounds but that speed differential will be evident early on...it will snowball from there

I don't think so mate. Ricky is alot faster than people give him credit for - you can see that in the Malignaggi fight and the video I posted. Manny is quicker but not by all that much. His improvements will be more evident in this fight also, so Manny will not know what hit him after the first bell - which is exactly what happened with Malignaggi. Not comparing Pacquiao to Malignaggi, just saying that Manny will find it difficult to adjust and cope with Hatton.

hatton still comes in head first. that is gonna really hurt him against manny.

You clearly are a turd that has yet to be polished.

I think Mayweather is getting him out of that bad habit, as there was some improvement to that side of Ricky's game in the Malignaggi fight, more head movement, etc. I think Ricky and Mayweather will know that coming in head first will not work against Pacquiao, so that will be one thing they will work on in training - thats what training camp is for.

True, Ricky looks super quick there. Keep it up !

hatton looks good moving forward and throwing punches, but will we see that in the fight instead of clinching???

I think so, you know. He showed that he can box good without clinching in his last fight, and that was only with a few weeks training with Mayweather. I hope he mixes his styles though, and keeps Manny guessing so he can't get into his rythm.
